We shared the 5-meat, 4-side combo, and everything was delicious. The brisket, ribs, and pulled pork were standouts, and the mac & cheese and cornbread were equally tasty. Everyone working there genuinely seemed to enjoy making guests feel welcome, which created a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. The bathroom had hot water at the sink--a small detail, but one I always appreciate. We would definitely come back!

Shared with my husband because he liked the first bite of creamy goodness so much. I paid him back by eating some of his beans which had nice chunks of brisket in them. So flavorful with a hint of sweetness. Husband's chicken sandwich had a large, juicy piece of chicken too. We stuffed ourselves. The service was friendly and prompt. Only negative was I was not impressed with the biscuit. Hard on the bottom yet the top was falling apart. Flavor was fine. Lunch was definitely worth taking the long way up to Bandon. Sorry review is late, but I promised I would do it this time.

Hey everyone has an off day just a bummer it was while we were there. The water had no ice and was warm, the beer was warm, the bread was dry, the steak skewers were overcooked, the cod was small and over cooked, very dry and there was more pesto then cod. The dessert the "mirage" was oddly texture, but this one was more a preference my wife liked it, I'm more a light, delicate mousse. This mousse was springy and the pastry didn't make sense. Our waiter was great, entertaining and attentive.

We literally had to ask him 3 times for sugar for my ice tea. The bread is a very different bread that didn't come with butter, the chowder wasn't served with crackers, and our waiter never once asked us how our meal was. It wasn't even busy when we got there for our reservation at 5:30pm and it still took 45 minutes from the time we ordered to get our food. Not once did our waiter ask if we needed more drinks or if we needed anything else. My chicken in my pasta dish was VERY over cooked, the fettucine was over cooked badly and the flavor of my pasta dish was not good at all. I literally barely ate anything. When our waiter picked up my dish he didn't even ask if it was ok, since there was so much of it left. Hands down the WORST dinner and staff experience we have ever had at Spinners. So unfortunately we won't go back. So sad how bad things have went down hill since the old owners retired. The Gifford's

Of all of them, we'd like to congratulate Barnacle Bistro on being the worst experience of the trip. We waited approximately 20-30 minutes just to be seated. After finally getting a table, we waited again for someone to take our order. Eventually, a staff member went to take the order of people who had arrived and been seated after us while we still hadn't even been acknowledged for our order. At that point, we'd had enough and left without eating. We can't review the food because nobody ever got around to serving us. Unfortunately, the service--or lack of it--was enough to make this the most disappointing restaurant stop of our entire Oregon coast trip.

Me and my boyfriend are from out of town and were looking forward to a clam chowder bread bowl. We…read moretalked about it the whole drive up. What we got was the most underwhelming mush. We had to add so much seasoning and hot sauce to make it edible and it was blander than hell. My boyfriend didn't have a single piece of clam in his bowl and we both thought it smelled a little fishy, he genuinely thought his had fish instead of clams. Most of my clams were sandier than hell, yes I know that comes with eating seafood sometimes but it was overwhelmingly sandy. 2 hours after we ate, both of us are glued to the toilet. It's coming out both ends. I swear we've lost 10lbs already. Also a bread bowl is advertised as $14, a cup of chowder is $7, we somehow ended up paying $40.56 without tipping, yes there is a credit card surcharge of 3% but that would ONLY add $1.05.

Avigail was our wedding planner, day-of coordinator, and florist for our perfect July 2025 wedding…read more We enjoyed every aspect of working with Avigail: her resources to the greater event planning community, recommendations of vendors and potential locations, general experience in wedding planning, and her eye for floral and event design. She and husband Noel worked together on our wedding setup and day-of coordination. Between the two of them and the service team they brought, every aspect of the day was covered and super easeful for me and my husband. Noel was especially helpful for set up and A/V, which was a big relief for us because we did not hire a DJ or MC. The entire team, from set-up and service to breakdown, was incredibly professional and made the day feel seamless. Avigail's florals were jaw-droppingly beautiful and to this day we get compliments from our friends and family. We were looking for a mix of tropical meets romantic for our bouquets and table arrangements. She hit the nail on the head for absolutely every arrangement (see photos). A day-of coordinator is the most important vendor you could look for, and we couldn't recommend Avigail more! As far as florals go, there is NO better option locally than Avigail. She has the experience, resources, and natural talent to meet any and all budgets, visions, and expectations. You truly made our wedding the best day of our lives! We cannot thank you more.

Avigail is absolutely incredible! Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without her!…read more From the moment we started planning, she listened so carefully to my vision and brought it to life in a way that completely exceeded my expectations. Every single flower was stunning--I am still in awe. Her attention to detail was impeccable. From the color palette to the placement of every arrangement, she understood exactly what I wanted. She jumped on calls with me every single week to make sure we were always on the same page. That level of dedication and communication made the entire process feel so much more manageable. On the day of the wedding, I didn't have to worry about a thing. Everything ran so smoothly, it was clear how much thought and care she put into every element of the day. If you're looking for someone who has the talent to make your dream wedding a reality--hire her. We're still getting compliments from our guests about how beautiful our wedding was. Thank you Avigail for making our day so beautiful and unforgettable!

Her level of experience having done this for multiple years showed since each drop was super smooth while still fun! Would highly recommend booking a trip with her.
